Summary
[COMPLETE]
A retelling.
“How … likely is it we can chalk this up to a naughty dream?”
Dropping her hands to her lap, she squints at him. “Well, now that you’ve said it—not very likely.”
He’s still half on her bedroll where’s she’d left him, propped up on one arm, other hand massaging at his throat. It takes her a while to process the wariness in his eyes—a length of time where her silent observation of him only seems to heighten his unease.
Just to be thorough, she briefly touches her fingers to either side of her throat. When she feels only smooth skin, she sighs again, shaking her head.
“… What are you going to do?” Astarion asks in a low and quiet voice, evidently having followed her—soundlessly in the way she knows he can be when he wants to. “What are you … What are you going to tell them?”

I'll Make It Through The Winter If It Kills Me by Guardian_Rose

Summary
She's near tranquil when the door is opened and cold air spills in. She cracks an eye as the intruder closes it behind them.
"I locked that," she says pointedly, voice hoarse from finally having rested for the first time in days.
"And I unlocked it," Astarion replies primly.
He looks…unsure. And she hates that. She hates it so much it shreds at her insides, worsened by the fact that she is the reason he is doubting himself. How many times has he told her that she's the first person he has ever cared for? How many times has he laid himself bare to her to rip him apart or help hold him together, trusting her to be gentle, to keep him whole?
The least she can do now is do as he asked.
"Come with me," she croaks at last, "please. Stay with me whatever happens tomorrow."
***
He doesn't know if it was deliberate action by Elizia or just pure luck that it's the four of them and Orpheus who make it to the brain stem together. Him, Elizia, Shadowheart, and Lae'zel. The first together at the last.

Summary
It was a bat. An all white bat with a mop of delicate curls and blood-red eyes. It stumbled, weaving as if it were drunk or didn’t know how to operate its limbs, wings held aloft to try and steady itself.
A vague sense of horror came over Vixie as she knelt and picked up the bat. It went limp between her palms, its claws sinking a tight hold on her forearms, not a wild creature at all. It blinked at her, large ears twitching, snout sniffing, strangely cute for such a demented thing.
“Astarion?” she questioned.
The bat tilted its head as if it understood her.
“Aww,” Wyll said, approaching. “And who’s this little guy?” He reached out to stroke a finger along its chin.
The bat reared its head back and sunk its fangs deep into Wyll’s finger. Wyll jerked back with a curse, blood welling from his broken skin. The bat gave a smirk, lips curling back to bare its fangs.
“Yep, that’s Astarion all right,” Gale proclaimed.

Summary
Astarion was perhaps addicted.
His tongue prodded around his mouth, sliding across his teeth, licking at his lips, swiping up every possible drop he may have missed. His fingers shook as he brought them to his chin, searching for any leftover morsel. His hunger was a writhing thing in his belly, spurred on by this luscious, delicious new meal.
Just a taste, that’s all it should have been. A one time thing to make him stronger. Yet he found himself desperate for this not to be the case.

Or exclusively drinking one person's blood has consequences. Namely, the vampire is a predator after all, as charming as he may be.
